Краткий обзор: A stunning historic landmark that charges you extra for the pool and makes you work for your dinner if you miss the bistro hours.
Подтверждено @dreamtravelvoyages: I stayed in the Tower Suite and it was unforgettable. The glass floor in the loft gave me butterflies, and sipping coffee on the balcony while overlooking all of Oslo was pure magic. Definitely the most unique room I've booked in Norway.

Reality check
The 'Standard' rooms are often described as surprisingly small (16 sqm) for a hotel this grand, feeling a bit cramped for two people with luggage.
- You are here for skiing, hiking, or the Korketrekkeren toboggan run
- You love a massive, high-quality breakfast buffet (it's a standout)
- You want fresh air and silence at night away from city sirens
Чистота и уход
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable, though recent reviews mention occasional missed dust or delayed service.
- Bathroom hygiene: Mostly spotless, but a few specific complaints about mildew in shower grout in older rooms.
- Maintenance: The historic parts are well-kept but show age; modern wings are crisp.
- Linens & towels: Standard high-quality Scandinavian hotel linens; duvets are fluffy.
- Odors & scents: Fresh forest air smell in common areas; no lingering smoke smells reported.

Советы инсайдеров
- ✨
Walk 15 minutes uphill to 'Frognerseteren' for their famous apple cake and even better views than the hotel.
- ✨
Buy a 24-hour Ruter transport ticket; it covers the metro and is much cheaper than single fares.
- ✨
If the hotel restaurant is full/expensive, the Holmenkollen Restaurant nearby offers another high-end option, but booking is essential.
5 вещей, которые нужно знать перед поездкой
💡The 'Standard' rooms are shockingly small—barely enough room to open a large suitcase.
💡You have to pay for the pool even if you just want to swim laps, not 'spa'.
💡The walk from the metro station is steep; dragging a roller bag up it in snow is a workout.
💡The 'Waffle Concept' in the bistro is actually a legit lunch option—savory waffles with toppings like cheddar and salsa.
💡The historic 'Dragon Building' rooms have tons of character but zero soundproofing compared to the modern wings.
